Yes, I do believe what you're telling me—the state of healthcare tech is definitely leagues behind general consumer tech. However, I do think this is a meaningfully different class of issue when it comes to patients' perceptions and actual harms. Patients are afraid of having their health data used against them. For example, revealing medical conditions to potential employers, revealing health information to friends/family, etc. There's a growing mistrust of healthcare institutions in recent years, and there are unfounded accusations of healthcare institutions selling data for financial gain like social media companies and even the DMV (https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a32035408/dmv-selling-...). This class of nefarious patient data privacy/security negligence effectively doesn't happen. I've treated patients who are illegal US immigrants, I see patients who use and possess illegal drugs while in the hospital, but they're not reported to anyone. They're simply treated and discharged. Unfortunately, a growing number of patients don't believe this is the case, and we see substantial disparities in levels of care provided to these patients who fear healthcare.

I'm not at all dismissing how terrible it is that healthcare tech companies can be lax with patient data. This absolutely needs to be better! But at the same time, this sounds more like incompetence than active malice. Practically speaking, a patient is extremely unlikely to experience actual harm because a developer accidentally took patient data home on a personal laptop. Although, I would love to hear more about what kinds of violations you've seen in your time in health tech? I work with third party vendors from a healthcare institution, and I absolutely want to figure out how to fix this.

Why the two single quotes before the subshells?
From the article: "I don’t have an clear actionable answer to these issues and this piece is more of a rant than anything" Not too helpful, then.

There are useful and testable ways to think about usability. A good metric is, can you achieve the goal without backtracking? This is tested by making videos of people attempting the task and observing when they have to back up. Such user testing was common in the era of desktop applications which cost money to buy and had to keep customers happy. It is seldom seen in the era of webcrap.

Not having to backtrack is close to what mathematicians call "obvious". Differentation is obvious but integration is not.[1]

The avionics people work hard on this.[2] That's a rather long document which collects info from other sources. A few excerpts:

• The primary test for designation of color is:

- Red - Immediate action required

- Amber - Pilot action (other than immediate) required

- Green - Safe operation indicated.

- Other advisory lights - any color distinct from the above.

This has been a standard for industrial equipment and aircraft for a century.

• If the flightcrew’s only way to determine non-normal values is by monitoring display values
presented on the display, the equipment should offer qualitative display formats. Qualitative display
formats convey rate and trend information better than quantitative (e.g. digital) presentations.

• Controls whose functions are not obvious (they mean yoke, throttles, etc.) should be marked or identified so that a flightcrew
member with little or no familiarity with the airplane is able to rapidly, accurately, and consistently
identify their functions. All the abbreviations seen on cockpit controls are standardized. There's a list, and it's not that long.

• To avoid visual clutter, graphic elements should be included only if they add useful information
content, reduce flightcrew access or interpretation time, or decrease the probability of
interpretation error.

The section on "Menus", on page 156, is definitely worth reading. And following.

This stuff isn't a mysterious unknown. It's well-known and well documented in aerospace.

There's a saying: If you meet one asshole, they're an asshole. If everyone you meet is an asshole, you're the asshole.

It is true that in a smaller college town here in the USA you'll meet a lot of people who are not ambitious, or have ambition to do things you don't find valuable, but if you can't find anyone who you think is doing something interesting, that suggests the issue is at least as much with you as it is with your environment and the people around you. I suggest therapy, talking to a professor you're close with, or someone back home.

Good luck.

This is me, I'm a renter and my complex will never install chargers. I've tried, it's a no-go.

That said, 50MPG vehicles are common these days. My '07 Prius gets 48, measured, a newer Camry/Accord/Sonata hybrid will get ~50MPG as well. Add an openpilot driving system and it's almost like a private train car.

I drive 80 miles round trip, 5x a week for work. That works out to ~$2000/yr for gasoline. That's really not that bad at all! Just don't drive a crossover or truck as your daily.

I'll probably never buy electric, because I don't want to buy a house (just not for me) and I don't think apartments will install a charger-per-spot (personal requirement). That's OK, hybrid is pretty great.

On the heat pump side, I only have to heat 700 sqft - it requires little energy and is so little cost-wise I don't even track it.

this is why purses were invented. If you go out in public pay attention to visible phones sticking out of pockets and what sort of person that belongs to.

I just commented on this last night, in fact. Wife's phone half out of her pocket, and it's a smaller iphone than my brick of a 1+, but my phone sits midway down my thigh in my pocket.

It’s pretty normal to have some narcissistic inclinations as a 19 year old, but it’s important to recognize that it’s fundamentally from a place of insecurity and excessive worry about how others perceive you. A good therapist could be helpful.
Of course, that is because in case you are a unicorn on next pass they didn’t throw you under the bus. So you’ll chat with them and like them.

It’s the expression: “if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.”

The Silicon Valley tv series has this great when Eric Baurich goes from begging to being mean and that’s is a great example of this.

I figured that "allow once, approximate location" would be sufficient for the privacy conscious.

A little scared to make it selectable, as it would make it much easier for spammers/scammers to target locations, as the only verification is email. I do realize they can still change their location that with an emulator.
Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but to this day I don't take notes on the computer when I'm in the room with a patient. I might take a couple notes, but otherwise I do it between patients or after hours. It seems discourteous to me otherwise.

That said, I have a prolonged charting period after every clinic. It's not sustainable in daily practice (I don't see patients every day).
> because it uses obvious code patterns and includes genuinely relevant comments.

I often (simplistically) explain LLMs to people by explaining that it's essentially running a statistical average of language. Next-token-prediction (generally) aims to predict the next-least-surprising word that would occur in a sequence. It aims to "make sense" and be unsurprising.

If you want creative writing and innovative research papers and novel ideas, this isn't going to get you very far.

But if the things you want are "unsurprising" or "predictable" (great attributes of good, maintainable source code), then using this to write code feels like a pretty darn good fit.
Even if that were true, I wouldn't mind the extra scrutiny.

"In the field of finance, private equity (PE) is capital stock in a private company that does not offer stock to the general public. Private equity is offered instead to specialized investment funds and limited partnerships that take an active role in the management and structuring of the companies. In casual usage, "private equity" can refer to these investment firms rather than the companies that they invest in."

I'm thinking that bare minimum it would be a good way to handle persistence. It's a simple way to do a KV store that's easy to write to a file. I think the same thing about sqlite.

The fact it comes with baked in graph traversal means I could offload pathfinding to it for certain kinds of projects (thinking like turn based strategy games on a hex grid, multiplayer board games). I'm a big fan of isomorphism in anything multiplayer.

There's some more esoteric things I want to think about, I just don't know datalog enough yet to know how much magic this will bring to these ideas.

I need to learn enough to answer questions like "how hard is it to solve a game of clue (the boardgame, with the rooms and the murder by candlestick) with a query in cozo?" -- If it's no sweat, like I think it might be, then that opens up a lot of possibilities for deductive AI systems. Constraint based solving / deduction is what I'm really interested in. Once I get a sense of what I can do, the ideas will come.

State machines, graphs and trees are data structures I use _constantly_. I want to love cozo enough to promote it to handling those almost every time I use one that might benefit from persistence or have any chance of enjoying emergent mechanics from being able to create cross system relations.

I saw the api had dijkstra's but I didn't see A* which seemed interesting. Lots to learn.
Oh me too. I was hoping for an implementation example of a nice neat little expert system. Maybe a sort of checklist-on-steroids application.
> in 2018 household debt wasn't at $17 trillion

Inflation means you're always going to have record statistics of everything in everything but a plummeting (think: Ukraine) economy. Stock market. Household wealth. Household debt.
I’m not a fan of, “but humans make mistakes too,” defense.

They do but we don’t consider it an improvement when they are made. The goal isn’t to have mistakes.

The goal is to maintain (or improve) outcomes without burning out clinicians. Using an LLM isn’t the only solution and might not be a good one.

If this is going to be a thing I hope that policy around it will inform patients when the physician plans to use it and allow a patient to opt out.
> structured in a progressive way that's a financial benefit to most people

I think most people are unable to draw a line from the carbon tax to how it financially benefits them

It has had a very visible surface level impact of making gas more expensive at gas stations, which is very clearly not a financial benefit for individuals who drive gas cars

People need a concrete reason to believe that this puts money in their pocket. Not some just some vague assurance of "This financially benefits you"

I must admit that my post was not very clear (reflecting the current state of my thoughts about this matter), but what I meant to say is exactly the opposite of your suggestion.

Some people believe that AI will take our jobs, but my point is that our work is already practically trivial, yet for some odd reason we are still in short supply.

As much as some of us have become JIRA slaves, our future generations will probably become AI slaves. True creative programming is beholden to a very select group of people, simply because there is so little demand for new things.

I see this all around me here in the US, and feel the same way that you do. Ironically, some Americans see this as a US-centric problem, and look at places like Denmark as an example of a country that still has its shit together, but your own comment seems to confirm that we're in the midst of a global cultural malaise that could probably give the 1970s a run for their money.

We have a total lack of competent leadership across all institutions -- political, commercial and social -- increasing extremism and authoritarianism from every political faction, and cynical short-term thinking from every economic institution. Everything is drowning in mediocrity and pessimism, and society is increasingly dysfunctional in every aspect. Extremists keep proposing authoritarian political solutions, but I see their proposals only as even worse iterations of the problem. What can we do about it, apart from admitting defeat and going off-grid in the mountains?
For me, this is always the gap that feels missing.
- I want to take and view notes on various devices: mobile, personal computer, work computer, randomly logged in ad-hoc machine.
- I want notes to not require me to be online all the time while writing (I work a lot on plans, or in remote locations without reliable internet)
- I want notes to make reasonable assumptions about syncing, biasing on the side of avoiding data loss over the appearance of magically "just working"
- I want to be able to search across all notes at the same time as any device's file system.

Simplenote used to solve this. Then, recently, they started to become less reliable at the same time as having a very large subscription price increase. Apple Notes is now okay, but awkward to log in or sync with a non-Apple device. I tried having a bunch of .txt files synced via Dropbox, but while the Dropbox mobile app will let you view offline files, it won't let you edit them unless online.

Not that much, grids can and do deal with highly variable loads all the time, as all the heavy machinery involved in traditional power generation (=generators, gearboxes, axles, turbines) has a lot of inertia that buffers sudden changes.

However, as more and more generation capacity shifts to renewable sources that by design have very small (wind) to zero (solar) inertia, there will be a requirement to build out frequency stabilizer units like the Tesla unit in Hornsdale, Australia [1].

Capitalism refers to the system of individuals pooling money together (capital) to start a venture that they couldn't if they acted separately. The idea of a company being a person-like legal entity with its own assets and liabilities is capitalistic.

In a free marked that is absent of regulatory hurdles, it is far from guaranteed that costs would be affordable.

> Clavell’s novel was originally made into a miniseries in 1980, one that went on to earn three Golden Globes, three Emmys, and another 11 Emmy nominations. This new Shogun had big sandals to fill, which it did — and then some.

Not to this viewer, it didn't :)

Re-read the book several times over the years and watched the original TV series (which was produced by Clavell himself, BTW), I was looking forward to enjoying the new show, but stopped watching after 4-5 episodes. To me it feels too one-dimensional and grim, even despite the subject matter. The original had more charismatic characters and was more about culture than gore and action.
